 playing the video from the play progress of he video being currently played on the first user terminal. 
 
     
     
       8. The method according to  claim 5 , wherein when the descriptive information includes a play progress of the video when the first user terminal receives the comment from the first user and at least one of the identifier of the video or the play IP address of the video, the playing of the video according to the descriptive information comprises:
 acquiring the video according to the at least one of the identifier of the video or the play IP address of the video; and 
 playing the video from the play progress of the video when the first user terminal receives the comment from the first user. 
 
     
     
       9. The method according to  claim 4 , wherein after the playing of the video according to the descriptive information, the method further comprises:
 receiving a comment regarding the video from the second user; and 
 sending the comment to the server, for the server to send the comment to the first user terminal for display.
